Timber or composite? It is one of the first decisions to make when planning a deck in Kenya. Timber is the original decking material. It is natural, attractive and difficult to replicate perfectly. Composite decking takes a different approach. It combines natural fibre with polymer to create a board designed to retain a wood-like appearance while reducing many of timber's maintenance requirements. Neither material is automatically right for every project. The better choice de

Bamboo composite wall cladding can transform a plain exterior or interior wall into a warm, modern surface with the look of natural materials and the durability required for everyday use. But the finished result depends on more than choosing the right cladding. Good installation matters just as much. In most cases, bamboo composite cladding is installed over a properly prepared substructure, with attention to alignment, ventilation, movement and the correct fixing method for

What is the best decking material for Kenya? There is no single answer. A private terrace in Nairobi, a swimming pool in Mombasa and a safari lodge deck have very different requirements. Timber offers an authentic natural appearance. Composite decking provides a similar warm look with much less maintenance. Stone and tile can be extremely durable but create a very different outdoor experience. The best choice depends on where the deck is being installed and what matters most

On Wednesday 23 September 2026, we welcomed a group of carpenters, fundis, contractors and flooring installers to our Nairobi factory for the first We Do Bamboo Certified Installer Workshop. The goal was simple: give installers a better understanding of the material they work with, show them how our bamboo composite decking and cladding is made, and share the installation techniques that help create a better finished project. It was also the first step in building our Certifi

How much does decking cost in Kenya? The short answer is that the price depends heavily on the material, substructure and installation method. For composite decking, material prices in the Kenyan market typically start at around KSh 5,500 per m². We Do Bamboo's locally manufactured bamboo composite decking currently starts at KSh 5,485 per m² for materials. Timber decking is harder to price with a single figure. The cost varies considerably depending on the timber species, bo

Wall cladding prices in Kenya vary considerably depending on the material, finish and installation method you choose. Standard Mazeras stone can cost around KSh 1,200–1,500 per m² for materials, while bamboo composite cladding from We Do Bamboo starts at KSh 1,815 per m². Premium stone finishes, more detailed composite profiles and aluminium composite panel systems can cost considerably more. But the material price is only part of the story. Installation, substructure, buildi

This week, Dutch national newspaper De Telegraaf spent a day with us in Kenya to take a closer look at the story behind We Do Bamboo. The resulting article follows our founder, Arthur de Leeuw, from one of the bamboo growers supplying us to our production floor in Nairobi, where locally sourced bamboo is processed into composite building materials. The story also goes back much further. We Do Bamboo coverage in Dutch press Before starting We Do Bamboo, Arthur worked as an Afr

For homeowners in Kenya, choosing an outdoor material is not only about how it looks on installation day. It also needs to cope with strong sunlight, heavy rain, moisture and termites, without becoming another part of the home that requires constant maintenance. Bamboo composite decking and cladding offer a durable, low-maintenance alternative to timber for terraces, patios, pool surrounds and exterior walls. The material is resistant to UV, moisture and termites, safe for ch

Understanding Material Requirements The first question is not simply: “Do we need bamboo?” It is: “At what stage of processing do we need the bamboo?” Bamboo Poles Full or treated bamboo poles are generally suited to construction, architectural applications, landscaping, furniture, and further mechanical processing.
